Rain & Flood – haiku

Needles jab at skin.
What we expect next, dear God?
Flood in the midday?

Freshness – haiku (bilingual)

Freshness

One blurred dusk
The wind is blowing to sweep
Water down.

Kesegaran

Senjakala
Hembusan angin jatuhkan
Titik air.

One Afternoon Of A Tortoise

In the pond of one botanical garden, Ms. Tortoise was enjoying a warm day – oops warm enough to call it hot and she so much wanted to emerge to the surface. Swam, swam and swam…. Diving to see if she could see other fellow swimmers  coming around. Oh, no one!

Ok, far ahead huge saucers are clustering. Maybe I can just perch for a while on one of them, thought Ms. Tortoise.

Swam, swam and swam…. Circling around some saucers which are actually leaves of water lily celebrating the sun ray.

Hop! Hop! Not easy for a tortoise to hop to something. Not easy, but doable. Yups!

Hmmm…. Ms. Tortoise saw on the leave wasn’t better than beneath the water. Ms. Tortoise decided to swim, swim, and swim away…. Enjoy the day!  🙂
